How does the makeup answer search work?
You type a question. The site matches it against a stored knowledge library using keywords, aliases and typo-tolerant search, then opens the closest structured answer.
Does it use an external AI service?
No. Answers come from the Answer.Makeup library. If there is no confident match, you see the closest questions instead of invented advice.
